Question

GEOMETRY HELP QUICK PLZ ONLY HAVE 20 MINs Find the area of the shaded portion of the figure. Dimensions are in feet. Leave your answer in terms of p. The figure is not drawn to scale.

Answer 1

The answer is (68 - 16 pi) ft^2 I just took the test and got it correct.

Answer 2

You have to evaluate the area of the circle and the area of the trapezoid. Then you substract the area of the circle from the area of the trapezoid.

Area of circle :

`\pi {r}^(2) = 16\pi`
Area of trapezoid : (b + B)h/2 = 17*8/2 = 68

The area of the shaded portion is

`68- 16\pi`
